The good Mr. James was so FRANK to call my bike, a kind of Frankenstein...
Refer to all the second hand parts I used for the creation.

Now I´ll be Frank with you! - that name gave me an idea.

When you see this you properly think -

Nice Knuckelhead....


Nice color.

Absolutely - and if I tell you, the color is original 1939.
That makes it even better.

Not only is the hole bike 100% original, it also comes with original saddlebags,


Original Harley-Davidson Windscreen,


And a small box with some extra service parts - original of cause......
As always when you buy a well taken care of vintage bike.


If you think that's pretty awesome, then read this next letter carefully

Whaooo - and here's your receipt sir.


Come on! - this can´t be true.....

Ohh - did I forget, to tell you.

There´s some more -



An original sidecar, also in original color and 1939 air in the tire
follows this find.


And well of cause -


If you want the hole packet sent to your door, in the original Harley-Davidson delivery box.
No problem...

Box and bike has matching numbers, so there will be no misunderstanding.....
Thats real Service and Satisfaction.

Honestly! - I´v never seen anything like this sold together before...

Oooh,

Listen to me, said the prophet...


Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all
Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see

new "old" gas tank for his FRISCO style triumph.


I immediately say - Hey man! why don't we paint something on that!?....

I showed Lau some rattlecans in Blue, Orange & Yellow, as an example.

Lau´s respond:/ - Cool! those colors reminds me of something from back then - when I was i Kid.. - you know! - toy cars etc.

I:/ like Hot Wheels?

Lau:/ FOR SURE - Hot Wheels it is - let´s paint it...

I:/ Sure - Shake shake shake the rattlecans.
